676: Two Years Outside
Two years later in the outside world.The time Zora had set for Abigail and Kai inside the time-accelerating world was now complete.Of course, saying two years made it sound simple. Clean, and easy to understand but inside that realm, two years outside had stretched into a number of years so terrifying that even thinking about it too carefully felt exhausting. Kai and Abigail had lived through centuries upon centuries of battle, cultivation, death, recovery, wandering, learning, failure, breakthrough, humiliation, and victory. They had died so many times that neither of them knew the number anymore. At first, they had counted. Then they stopped. Then they forgot why they ever bothered counting in the first place.There were deaths by beasts, cultivators, formations, storms, poison, strange heavenly phenomena, old monsters who looked harmless, children who were not children, cities that turned out to be living formations, rivers with minds, deaths by mountains with mouths, techniques
Chapter 675: Dying Was Becoming A Habit
Then they woke up again, sat in silence and Kai stared ahead, Abigail did the same too and after a long moment, Kai said, “I don’t like valleys.”Abigail replied, “Noted.”They cultivated again.This time, Kai added lightning pressure and crushing weight into his training ground. Abigail added collapsing terrain and unstable footing into hers. They trained until their bodies and instincts could at least respond better to sudden environmental death, then they left again.The next death came from something even more ridiculous.They avoided valleys and the beast forest.They chose a calm river path instead, moving carefully along the bank while watching for beasts, formations, guards, and natural disasters. The river looked harmless, flowing quietly with clear water and faint spiritual mist. Kai even crouched once to examine it.“Looks safe,” Abigail said.Kai frowned. “That’s suspicious.”“You say everything is suspicious.”“And I keep being right.”A moment later, the river opened it
Chapter 674: Bad Weather
Kai and Abigail woke up again.This time, neither of them gasped violently like before.They simply opened their eyes, stared at the familiar sky of the array world, and remained lying there for a few quiet breaths, both of them looking so tired that even anger felt like too much work. The same rich Qi flowed around them, the same peaceful wind brushed against the grass, and the same mountains stood in the distance as if the world had not just killed them immediately after their first real victory.Kai slowly lifted one hand and covered his face.Abigail sat up beside him, silent.For a while, neither spoke.What was there to say?It had taken them ten years to kill one beast.Ten full years.Ten years of being torn apart, crushed, pierced, bitten, slapped into cliffs, trampled into the ground, and dragged through the forest like training dolls thrown into a grinder. Ten years of learning one creature’s rhythm until its every breath, every twitch of muscle, every shift of claws had be
Chapter 673: Ten Years For One Beast
Ten years later.The loud sound of a beast falling echoed throughout the whole forest.It was not a simple sound. It was the kind of fall that made the earth tremble, the kind that sent birds scattering from ancient trees and forced weaker creatures hidden in burrows to curl tighter in fear. The massive beast crashed through three towering trunks before its body finally slammed into the ground, carving a long trench through mud, stone, and roots. Dust rose. Leaves rained down. The thick spiritual mist hanging over the forest shook violently from the impact, and for a few breaths, everything went still.Kai stood several meters away from the fallen beast, breathing heavily.His clothes were torn in too many places to count, blood streaked the side of his face, and one of his arms hung slightly lower than the other, clearly dislocated or half-broken, but he remained standing. His silver blood pulsed beneath his skin, rapidly closing the deep wounds across his chest and shoulder. Every b
Chapter 672: Respawn
Kai and Abigail gasped at the same time.Their eyes flashed open violently, and for one terrifying breath, both of them reacted like people still pinned beneath the claws of that beast. Kai’s hand shot to his chest instinctively, fingers pressing against the place where the claw had punched through his body, while Abigail’s hand tightened around the hilt of her sword as cold intent surged around her for half a second before she forced it back down. Their breathing was rough, almost ragged, and the memory of death still clung to them with disgusting clarity.Pain, pressure, blood in the throat and the feeling of life draining too fast for the body to fight back then nothing.Kai lowered his head slowly and stared at his chest.No wound, blood or torn flesh.His clothes were whole too, as if the array had restored not only their bodies but the moment before failure itself. The silver blood inside him flowed steadily, strong and alive, without any trace of the beast’s destructive Qi. Abi
Chapter 671: First Death
Two days later, Kai’s eyes flashed open.The cold around him cracked.For a moment, the black glacier domain trembled as if something beneath it had awakened. Frost clung to Kai’s hair, his shoulders, and his robes, and a thin layer of dark ice had formed over half his body, but when his eyelids lifted, silver light flashed through his pupils before disappearing just as quickly. The frozen pressure that had been crushing his blood and marrow for two straight days loosened slightly, not because the training ground had become weaker, but because his body had learned how to push back against it better than before.Kai inhaled slowly.His silver blood moved like a cold river beneath his skin, stronger and smoother than it had been when he first sat down. Every heartbeat felt heavier, deeper, and more controlled. The cold that had tried to slow him now moved through his body like a sharpening stone. It still hurt, of course. It hurt terribly. But useful pain always had a different taste.
